The Big Lebowski.

Who actually has bookmarks just lying around?...

What if I told you...

I fold the corners of pages for bookmarking?

I hate pizza.

I'm telling.

What? It's not a bad thing. Necessarily.

Besides, I think I have a tighter grip on your balls.

I was gonna blank post, but this laptop I received from college doesn't have a number pad. 

Was it a botched lobotomy?

I don't see what's wrong with that logic. Don't give a fuck? Then stay the fuck away. If you're not adding to the thread, don't bother. No one cares about some random person not caring, it only impedes discussion and no one gets happier by it.

Ignoring the fact that you blatantly contradicted yourself (with your logic, you DO care about the opinions of those who don't care), I'm not sure you see the point.

No one needs your permission to post their opinion in any thread. It really doesn't matter if you don't care about their thoughts. They still have the right to post them.

It depends on the topic of the thread. If it's spam or a really shit thread, it's okay to post "nobody cares". Otherwise, you need to shut the fuck up.

But of course, that's entirely subjective.

Hey PSU, did you know we have a Serious section? Make your 9/11 commiseration thread there!

Your two scenarios are a little different. If someone asks you, specifically, what they should wear for a party, then they are waiting for your response. On a public forum, the question is usually asked in general, to no specific individual, and so there isn't any expectation for you to reply.

Fair enough. A person asks a group of people, to no one in particular, what he or she should wear. One person responds with, "I don't care". Maybe he wouldn't say it precisely like that in that scenario, but you know what I mean.

And I know the scenario is still different because it's in real life, but that's sort of my whole point. You'd never say, "Then why'd you respond?" in real life. That's just silly. They obviously just don't care, and responding doesn't mean you do care. Why is it different in forums?

Careful with that shit. You'll make PSU blow a gasket.

Nothing is sacred.

Like I said in OP. Unless you'd have the balls to make fun of 9/11 in the middle of Times Square, then why do it behind a screen? That just screams you're a pussy.

You missed the point again though. It's not about having balls.

And yeah, there's gonna be people who will do it just because it pisses you off.
To which I'd simply advise, stop being so piss-off-able. Learn to not give a shit.

-Calling me an idiot.
-When you get some type of sick joy from making fun of 9/11

LOLOLOLOL

A lot of people find that exhibiting an irreverent attitude towards tragedy actually helps them mentally heal from the experience. Being ironic, treating the issue as a joke, gives them strength. It may sound sick to you, but it's reality.

Obviously I doubt very many people were affected or are still affected by something that happened thirteen years ago. So at this point, the irony is a symbol of remembrance. We all know that 9/11 was a tragedy. No one's being serious when they make jokes. That's why it's called a joke. You taking offense to the jokes on any level is missing the point entirely.

>someone makes thread about shit nobody cares about
>respond with "i don't care", "nobody cares", etc.
>OP responds with "you cared enough to reply"

Apart from how violently stupid that is... I mean, we have two strings of "care" going on.

One string of care is concerned with letting the OP know my thoughts about his or her thread.
Then there's another string of care which would contain all the cares I'd have reserved for the subject of the thread itself—Which there exist none of.

The OP is trying to merge these two strings together, when it doesn't make any sense. You could do that with virtually anything. If someone asks me what they should wear for their... whatever, a party or something, my default response is going to be "I don't care". Because I really don't. But do I somehow magically care just because I cared to respond to this person's query?

No. Of course not.
So... what the fuck.
